Katie Price has spoken movingly about the highs and lows of caring for her disabled son, Harvey, saying: "He does play mummy up sometimes."

The 12-year-old, whose dad is former Manchester United footballer Dwight Yorke, has Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), a rare genetic condition.

He is also on the autism spectrum, has limited vision and can't walk far unaided. Every day, he has to take six types of life-saving medication.

Mum-of-five Katie, 36, went on This Morning with her oldest son to talk about the challenges of caring for him but said she has the full support of her own mum, Amy Price, 62, who also appeared on the show.
